So when you gonna come over here and help me finish my swap.

All the hard stuff is done already.

P.S.

My slave came with no bolts any idea of the type and size bolts you using to bolt the slave cylinder to the tranny?</div>
I'd love to help you out but in 2 hours i'm going to south jersey for 2 weeks, now for the bolts just look in mitsu caps they every bolt type you need.

does the wiring for the reverse lights also work for the 7G? I figured that its something like that but not messing with the way the haynes manual go the wiring code down.

**GOOSEY2099** · 01-12-2006, 09:40 AM

no idea show me some pics of your harnesses

**bronxbombr** · 01-12-2006, 04:44 PM

I have the same harness as all other 7G's i think, this is a pic of the one in Matts tutorial

Im gonna take a pic of mine just in case it is a lil different.

**bronxbombr** · 01-14-2006, 10:34 PM

any word on this yet?

**GOOSEY2099** · 01-14-2006, 11:20 PM

I looked this up in Mitchel1 ondemand5 and here are some diagrams for you http://www.vertsoft.com/7g.pdf (password is blah) from the transmission diagram it looks that its exactly the same wire color code for M/T as well as A/T. Let me know if you need any other diagrams.

Thanks im sure it should work, i had the same idea with the wiring just not someone to double check my theory.

**macknati** · 01-18-2006, 04:06 PM

That is a beautiful sight man. Im definitely gonna have to do that swap.

**bronxbombr** · 01-23-2006, 06:38 PM

Well i took another look at my NS switch and decided to take those pics, let me know if its any different than the ones you guys have

**bronxbombr** · 01-24-2006, 07:40 AM

Hey goosey holla at me. Wanna start my car this weekend.

**GOOSEY2099** · 01-24-2006, 12:21 PM

CONNECT PIN 5(BLK/YEL) + 8(BLK/BLU) TO START THE CAR

CONNECT PIN 7(RED/GRN) + 6(RED/BLU) TO TRIGGER THE REVERSE LIGHTS

Use the 2pin connector on top of the tranny to connect the 6+7 that should be your reverse gear selenoid. Other then that you should b all set.

TKS, will keep you posted on this.

I know a guy in kansas that wants to do the swap on his V6 8Gen. i was wondering will he use the same donor for v6 5spd tranny swap. I'm not too sure what the differences may be.

**GOOSEY2099** · 02-03-2006, 11:30 AM

It should be the same parts + MT axels

**GOOSEY2099** · 02-03-2006, 12:21 PM

Bump, I just put up all the documents I needed to do this swap. Take a look in the first post.

you have to get the parts from a v6 3g eclipse...

This is only for the 6cylinger correct? The 8G 4cyl auto axels work with the MT or am I misstaken.

I found a trans and im trying to talk the guy down in price.

theblackpearl · 02-03-2006, 10:15 PM

my 8g axels worked with my manual tranny

**qnz** · 02-04-2006, 01:59 AM

i dont think all the eclipse manual trannys are the same. i think they changed something after 2000. anyway, its a latter yr eclipse tranny you would want
